Smoking girl drawing with commentary

I spent most of my late afternoon and evening trying to write this post! This afternoon @kommienezuspadt, @guthrie and I went out for sushi and took a relaxing walk to Universe Games to purchase a specific Magic the Gathering card. Afterwards, I dropped @kommienezuspadt off at Caffetto so he could hang out with @tarotbyfergus because today is his birthday! 🎉

I had planned on taking @guthrie, my nieces and nephew to a park to enjoy the day, but there wasn't enough time. Instead, we made a thirty minute drive to my sister's house so the kids could hang out and play. I thought my biggest obstacle would be with the four younger brats but no, it was my phone going off with calls and text messages.

🤔 Strange how my phone goes off when I least expect it.

I spent most of my time doing a bunch of random things.

My first task was helping my sister-in-law's mother send text messages to inform multiple people about an upcoming event that she was hosting. She wanted me to take a 'nice' photo of the invitation. She did not want to actually mail it to her guests because technology was so much faster. I asked if we should make a Facebook event instead but she declined, saying that a quick phone call after sending the image invites would give it a sweet personal touch. I did what she asked since I've got an unlimited amount of patience. 

I ended up downloading the Scannable App, which basically turns your phone into a scanner when launched. While I was in the middle of explaining to her how texting works- my phone starts buzzing with messages. I was having a hard enough time understanding her words because of her regional accent and I wasn't going to break my concentration now. I had to flip my phone over to fight the temptation since it's also extremely rude to ignore an elder family member.

If you're interested in watching me doodle and mess around with paints then click on the video. 👆🏼

It took me a few tries to record the audio but I ended up finding a quiet area outside on the front steps. I could hear baby talk in my first few recordings but they were too adorable to be frustrated over!

The day ended well enough. I got to hang out with family, the kids were well behaved and I eventually responded back to all the people who were blowing up my phone. Yep, a very successful day.

Thanks for checking out these sketches and another one of my videos!! 🦊

Is there anything that delays you from making your Steemit posts?
